Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 7 to each side, so it now looks like this: -2x = 10
Divide each side by -2 to cancel out the -2 next to x. It should now look like this: x = -5

I hope this helps!

Find the circumference and area of a circle with a diameter of 14 inches. Leave your answers in terms of pi.

IRINA_888 [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. The circumference (c) of a circle is the diameter of a circle x pi. c = d(pi) = 14pi.

step 2. The area (A) of a circle is the radius of a circle squared x pi. The radius of a circle is 1/2 x the diameter. A = (14/2)^2(pi) = 49pi.

For a quadratic function ƒ(x)=ax2+bx+c, ƒ(−1)<1, ƒ(1)>−1, and ƒ(3)<−4. What could be the sign of a?

denis23 [38]

Answer:

"a" must be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.

The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.

Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.

If cos(θ)=2853 with θin Q IV, what is sin(θ)?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer: $\sin \theta=\frac{-45}{53}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$\cos\theta=\frac{28}{53}$

And we know that θ is in the Fourth Quadrant.

So, Except cosθ and sec θ, all trigonometric ratios will be negative.

As we know the "Trigonometric Identity":

$\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta=1\\\\\sin \theta=\sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}\\\\\sin \theta=\sqrt{1-(\frac{28}{53})^2}=\sqrt{\frac{53^2-28^2}{53^2}}\\\\\sin \theta=\sqrt{\frac{2025}{53^2}}\\\\\sin \theta=\frac{45}{53}$

It must be negative due to its presence in Fourth quadrant.

Hence, $\sin \theta=\frac{-45}{53}$

In a survey, three out of four students said that courts show too much concern for criminals. Of seventy randomly selected stude

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

B. Yes, because P(X ≥ 68) ≤ .05

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a score X occuring is said to be unusually high if the probability of a score of X or larger is lower than 5%.

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they think that the court shows too much concern for criminals, or they do not think this. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
